Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 1114

Even through the screen, Finley could practically feel Skye barking orders at him.

That damn girl...

Finley coughed awkwardly. "I'm going to go look for Dean Arthur."

With that, he quickly slipped out of the room.

Even after Finley had been gone for a while, Tegan still felt completely stiff. Glancing down at the frostbite ointment in her hand, the heat immediately rushed to her cheeks.

Those two siblings... what an absolute piece of work.

Her phone buzzed. It was a call from Susanna.

Tegan picked up. "Susie."

"Stella told me everything. That Uriah guy is completely useless, isn't he?"

When Stella had mentioned Tegan earlier, Susanna had been too swamped to get involved.

She could barely keep her own life together back then.

Now that Lacey was in Litamark, Susanna finally had some free time. Hearing how Uriah was letting Leslie ruin Tegan's life made her blood boil.

It made her realize that men simply could not be trusted.

"Everyone in Portis City knows how spoiled and unhinged Leslie is. Does her brother seriously have no clue?"

"And you too! How could you put up with that nonsense for years? You think I couldn't have supported you in Portis City? Why did you need the Horner family's fake charity?"

"They act like they're doing you a favor, but it's pure manipulation!"

Susanna was absolutely furious.

She used to think Uriah treated Tegan well, but what was this disaster?

The whole of Portis City gossiped about how Tegan was raised by Uriah.

After all this time, all she got was endless suffering.

"Alright, I've already left him. What are you getting so worked up for?" Tegan soothed.

"That ungrateful piece of trash. How dare Leslie kidnap you? She deserves to rot in a cell until the day she dies," Susanna spat.

Her voice was thick with indignation.

Before Tegan could reply, Susanna plowed on. "And you! If they were treating you like garbage, you should have told me. I would have used my mom's money to set you up."
